About this map

Alameda Spring serves as a central landmark in this high-desert landscape within the Cibola National Forest of Socorro County. The terrain is defined by a series of deep drainages and canyons, including Mill Canyon, Rock Springs Canyon, and Milligan Gulch, which illustrate the complex topography of the region. Local water management for livestock or wildlife is evident through named catchments like Barnet Tank, McDaniel Tank, and Rock-Header Tank.

Navigational access is concentrated along Forest 52-RD, which cuts through the southwestern portion of the map near Estaline Canyon and Big Rosa Canyon. The prominence of Bear Peak overlooks Bear Canyon, anchoring the eastern side of the survey area. This data reflects modern forest management and geographic naming conventions used to identify specific natural features and water sources across this public land expanse.
